Tips[]

Calculated - Emote - Fortnite
This section outlines a strategy.
Feel free to add tips, tricks and general advice about the topic.
  • Floating ATLASes are the best to defend, because they just need lower structural support. After doing this, you can almost ignore the ATLAS unless there are Flingers/Lobbers. Sometimes a roof is good to have with a defender inside.
  • If a floating ATLAS falls because of the loss of structural support, the ATLAS will fail. You will then need to restart the entire defense.
  • If at anytime 1 or more ATLASes fails, the entire mission must be restarted.
  • Be aware of Wildlife breaking your builds. As a result, do not build until you are ready to defend.
